Chapter 322 Misha’s Goal

322 Misha’s Goal

“Let’s not forget about the rest of the competitors, who all gave it their best effort. Now let’s wait for the other participants. There is only an hour left on the clock before the round ends.”

After the first students had reached the finish line, they would only be given one hour to reach the finish line before ending the round. Whether 100 students made it in time or not was not important. If there are fewer than 100 participants, those who make it past the finish line in time will only advance to the next round.

However, there was no need to worry about the number of participants. Following Ace Academy’s departure, other schools took the tokens. Ace Academy had already defeated Ursoloths which was defending the token’s location. With that, it was only a matter of them getting there and taking the tokens.

However, in order not to offend Ace Academy, they waited until Ace Academy was gone. They also didn’t dare to go in front of them. Therefore, when Ace Academy reached the Luminia Stamina, countless participants were already making their way to the finish line.

It was an intense competition, and each participant put their best effort forward. The crowd was filled with excitement and anticipation as they waited for the other participants to arrive. The atmosphere was electric, with cheers and applause echoing throughout the stadium.

As the clock ticked down, more and more participants made their way to the finish line. Some were running, others were crawling, and a few were limping, but they were all determined to make it to the end.

Finally, as the last few minutes of the competition approached, the remaining participants sprinted towards the finish line with all their might. The crowd erupted into thunderous applause as the final 100th participant crossed the finish line.

The organizers announced the first 100 participants who would move on to the next round, and they were congratulated by the organizers and the cheering crowd.

Many schools were proud of their students who made it to the next round of the competition. However, none can compare to what Ace Academy professors were feeling who had 20 of their students all advancing to the next round.

.....

But those who had failed to make it to the next round were depressed. Especially Arcane Academy whose students were all eliminated in the first round. Despite the fact that they knew their students were capable of making it to the third round, they had already been eliminated in the first round.

They already lost the status of Top-10 Academy last year. With every student being eliminated in the first round, they might even lose the fame that they built for the last decades. They would be seen as the school that could not even make it into the Top-100 list.

As the participants left the stadium, the excitement of the competition still lingered in the air. The next round promises to be even more intense, with new challenges and obstacles to overcome.

For the top 100 participants, the competition was far from over. They knew that they had to continue pushing themselves to their limits if they wanted to come out on top.

But for now, they could bask in the glory of their achievement and enjoy the moment. They had made it to the next round, and that was all that mattered.

Misha’s parents rushed to her side, tears of pride streaming down their faces.

“Misha, you were amazing!”

Her father exclaimed, hugging her tightly.

“We’re so proud of you!”

Misha smiled, feeling overwhelmed with emotion.

“Thank you, Dad. I couldn’t have done it without your support.”

Her mother, who was teary-eyed, hugged Misha tightly.

“You were absolutely incredible out there, sweetie. We knew you could do it.”

Misha hugged her back, feeling grateful for her parents’ love and support.

“Thanks, Mom. I’m so glad you were here to see it.”

Eleonore approached her with a big smile on her face.

“Congratulations, Misha! You did amazing out there,”

She said, giving her sister a warm hug. Eleonore was very proud of Misha. Eleonore knew how competitive the Tournament Of Academies was. To be able to come on top of all the geniuses was something that she never expected from her sister Misha.

Misha grinned and hugged her back.

“Thanks, Sister Eleonore. I couldn’t have done it without all of your support.”

She said feeling grateful for her family’s encouragement. Her parents beamed with pride as they continued to shower her with congratulations and compliments.

Misha smiled. She had trained for months to prepare for the competition, and it had all paid off.

Zero’s parents also came over to offer their congratulations.

“You did great out there, Misha. We’re so proud of you.”

“Thank you so much! I could not have done it without your help.”

She was very grateful to Zero’s parents as they had provided many resources for her. Zero’s parents had known Misha since she was a kid and would treat her as if she were their daughter. They would not hold back if it was something to help her.

Considering all the money and resources Zero’s company sent them, they had no problem procuring high-quality potions for Misha. The resources that she got from Zero’s parents were one of the reasons that allowed her to rank up so quickly.

She was thankful to every one of them. Without them, she knew that she would not be able to achieve what she could today. It was thanks to them that she was able to get first place in the race.

She looked around the stadium, and she saw other participants celebrating with their families and friends. It was a moment of joy and pride for everyone who had made it to the next round.

But Misha knew that the competition was far from over. She had to stay focused and continue training hard if she wanted to make it to the finals. Her aim was not only to be the first for only the first round, she wanted to be the champion of the tournament.

However, she knew better than anyone how high the hurdle was. As she had also spent some time with Hiro and others, she knew how strong her competitor was.

Not to mention Hiro, the other three were also very strong. Sylvia, Lisa, and Zion were all ranked higher than her and they also wielded high-level Art with strong skills. While she seemed strong compared to other participants, she was lacking when compared to the four of them.

Moreover, her target was someone much more powerful than Hiro. She wanted to know whether she was catching up with that person or not.
